Quite apart from my own lack of any interest in duped items, according to Leurocian, there is one blaze cu per every 23,301 cu sidhes spawned and even that has a chance at rolling as a paragon.

Spawning the blaze cu is actually the easy bit, since getting it tamed and out of the Weald takes a little more doing when every tamer in the Weald leaps on it, interrupts others' tame attempts, and usually manage to kill the poor gaudy thing off thus ensuring no one else gets the prize.

Based on the above only, I'd hazard a guess that there are substantially fewer blaze cu sidhes than there are those duped vine cord sandals.

The fact that vine cords are duped doesnt change the fact that it is a very desirable item and you will have to pay to get them. The majority of rares in the game are duped and they still command high prices.

[/ QUOTE ]Perhaps not to you. The fact, as you say, that they are duped makes them decidedly un-desirable to me.

and you will have to pay to get them.

[/ QUOTE ]You might have to pay through the nose &amp; sell your first born. I, on the other hand, could carry out a simple exchange since I generally have at least one blaze cu sidhe in my possession at all times.

In any case, as for desirability, the OP quite clearly expressed a desire to trade what he says is his "last pair" of vine cord sandals for a blaze cu. What does that say about how highly the OP, at least, values both duped vine cords and undupable blaze cu sidhes?

Well the pair i traded before this i got a singin ball and oak leaf cloak for one , value of the items, all pixel dust to me i play to have fun I even set up a public neon dye tub at my house for all of uo to use... whats that say about me??
